Universal Joint
Features of Universal Joint
- Designed to transmit rotary power between drive components that are not positioned in a straight line.
- Allows tube-expansion tooling to operate at an angle in restricted and difficult-to-access working areas.
- Flexible joint movement helps compensate for angular misalignment between the drive and connected tool.
- Suitable for use with compatible rolling drives, drive extensions and tube expanders.
- Precision-machined connections provide secure engagement and dependable rotational transmission.
- Compact design makes the joint suitable for boilers, headers and closely spaced tube arrangements.
- Heavy-duty construction provides strength and reliable performance during industrial operation.
- Available in different square-drive sizes according to connected equipment requirements.
